a whole lot of robot pics-
face has zipper mouth, snap eyes, and hook and eye “eye” nose-
button shoulder-
this is what I was cutting all those circles for- elbow-
this is the whole arm. The “hand” is a hook from a girdle. I am beginning to appreciate all the odd stuff my mom had tucked away in her sewing room. None of which I could bring myself to throw away, of course!
aren’t they a cute couple?
In case you haven’t guessed, this robot was inspired by the Daleks on Dr. Who.
Another Picture here on Flickr.
I love how she is a robot, but she’s wearing a dress! Glad you worked out the arm issue. A beautiful pair together, especially with your children (I’m assuming those are you children!).
So amazing, I left a comment on Flickr, too! Did you see the demise of the last dalek on Doctor Who last week?
These guys are FABULOUS, Mimi! Fabulous!!
So good, Mimi!
Loving the robots, Mimi! She-bot is my favorite.
My sister and I opened an Etsy store recently. It’s “under-construction” but open for sales. We have a lot of filling in to do in terms of text/info. It’s slow going because I’m doing the computer stuff from a distance. She and I just haven’t had a chance to be in one place together long enough to do all that needs to be done. But! We did make our first sale this week…we were both SO excited!!
Wow. Just wow. Love all the varied ways you’ve used buttons, and the way you’ve shaped the body. Gorgeous work, Mimi.
You have outdone yourself with these robots, Mimi!!
I love it! I was just watching Dr. Who last night. My son didn’t understand what I saw in it, but he woke up this morning talking about it so I might have converted him.
I can’t wait to see the offspring they produce!
:-)
And I can see pics now btw!
Beautiful ones.
Your robots are great. Do you know that the topic for ‘www.illustrationfriday.com’ is ‘robot’?
Wow! You’ve got some really great stuff over here!! Those robots are amazing!!
I thought it looked like a dalek! But lovelier. I can’t get over how you used snaps and hook&eye fasteners, and the zippers… these robots are so perfect.
